VW seeks new CEO to recover
Volkswagen's supervisory board met on Friday to discuss who to name as CEO after Martin Winterkorn quit the job this week over an emissions-rigging scandal that's rocking the world's top-selling automaker. Matthias Mueller, the 62-year-old head of VW's Porsche unit, emerged as a favorite to take the job after Winterkorn quit. Winterkorn, who had been CEO since 2007, said he took responsibility for the "irregularities" found by US inspectors in VW's diesel engines, but insisted he had personally done nothing wrong.
